JTERM(1)  —  

NAME

jterm − reset layer of windowing terminal

SYNOPSIS

jterm

DESCRIPTION

The jterm command is used to reset a layer of a windowing terminal after downloading a terminal program that changes the terminal attributes of the layer.  It is useful only under layers(1).  In practice, it is most commonly used to restart the default terminal emulator after using an alternate one provided with a terminal-specific application package.  For example, on the AT&T TELETYPE 5620 DMD terminal, after executing the hp2621(1) command in a layer, issuing the jterm command will restart the default terminal emulator in that layer. 

EXIT STATUS

Returns 0 upon successful completion, 1 otherwise. 

NOTE

The layer that is reset is the one attached to standard error; that is, the window you are in when you type the jterm command.
